dim_STAT is a performance analysis and monitoring tool for Solaris, Linux, Mac OS X, and other UNIX systems. Its main features are a Web-based interface, data storage in a MySQL database, several data views, interactive (Java) or static (PNG) graphs, real-time monitoring, multi-host monitoring, post analyzing, statistics integration, professional reporting with automated features, and more.

paralab is a framework for black-box analysis of MPI programs. It allows you to investigate communication patterns, performance issues, and algorithmic features of binary MPI programs, without any source code.

timeplotters is a collection of command line tools for visualizing temporal data. It is especially useful for visualizing data from ad-hoc program logs, helping you to spot patterns and anomalies that you would not otherwise see by just watching how the program works or by looking at the logs with the naked eye. Its input format is tailored to event types typically seen in program logs, and the visualization methods are tailored to the questions typically asked about program performance (e.g. distribution of activity durations).

Django-live-profiler is a low-overhead data access and code profiler for Django-based applications. Profiling Web applications on a development environment often produces misleading results due to different patterns in the data, different patterns in user behavior, and differences in infrastructure. All existing DB access profiling solutions for Django seem to focus on a single request, but in the real world certain queries might be negligible in a single request while still putting a considerable strain the database across all requests. Django-live-profiler aims to solve these issues by collecting database usage data from a live application.
